Chapter 220 Baby Driver
Chapter 220 Baby Driver
"Master, do you really want to inherit a territory?"
"Hans, how many times have I told you that this is not a territory, it's just a farm."
"I am so excited that the master I serve is going to become a lord! Msestro, viva! (Italian: Long live the master)
"
Bourne rolled his eyes helplessly.
Although Hans has been asleep for many years, he learns new things very quickly, worthy of being a mercenary.
But their thoughts are still full of feudal dregs and they worship the powerful and wealthy.
This emotion reached a climax when he heard that Byrne was about to inherit a 4000-acre (16 km) plot of land.
Because in his opinion, this area was larger than most earldoms at that time.
The earldom he served at the time had a territory of only 3000 acres, 80% of which was hills and streams, while the earldom (farm) that Bourne inherited was an endless plain.
"This is truly the foundation of the emperor!"
So from the moment he got off the plane, his excitement never subsided.
In comparison, the little girl Kate is much more obedient.
But—crack, crack, crack.
As long as she has snacks to eat and a nap to sleep, Kate is happy!
This time, Bourne brought the two of them back to Detroit to pick up Norman and the others.
Ever since he placed Norman, Samantha and the others in a safe house to recuperate and asked the local FBI to take care of them, Bourne has been thinking about his next arrangements for them.
Even though they are all old, weak, sick, women and children, their fighting ability and life experience are definitely far superior to most ordinary people.
What's more, through his contact with them, Bourne could feel that these people had their own persistence and bottom line, and they were people who could be absolutely trusted at critical moments.
If you don't recruit such people when they are at the lowest point in their lives and still have a good impression of you, you will never find such a good opportunity in the future.
It just so happened that Bourne also wanted to build the farm into his future base, so it was very necessary to have a group of capable, loyal and reliable people.
So, after Bourne came out of the beast cage yesterday, he contacted Norman and Samantha separately to ask for their opinions.
Norman agreed readily.
He is a retired veteran and has long been accustomed to a life of displacement. His biggest dream now is to have a piece of land to settle down and start a family.
Hernandez and Phoenix don't care. They don't have anything to be attached to Detroit. There's nothing wrong with following Norman to a new place and starting a new life.
There were some twists and turns on Samantha's side, as she had a disagreement with her mother Scarlett.
In the end, it was Bourne's promise to build a free library for children in the local area that convinced the three elderly ladies who were recovering from their injuries, and then convinced Samantha.
To Samantha, she owed a favor to everyone present, including her mother, so she had no choice but to agree.
In fact, Samantha was secretly happy in her heart.
She didn't know when it started, but she had developed feelings for Bourne, the powerful, mysterious, handsome and sunny FBI agent. She didn't realize it when they were together, but in the few days when Bourne was away, all she could think about was him. She didn't even touch her favorite video games.
Her mother Scarlett already knew all of this, because she and Samantha's father were also aware of it. Of course, Emily and the three killer aunts all saw it.
Therefore, Scarlett insisted on agreeing to Bourne's request, and the three old ladies also half-seriously proposed to rebuild the library. On the one hand, they really liked the quiet atmosphere of the library, and on the other hand, they also wanted to see how far Bourne could go to win them over.
The result is of course everyone is happy.
So, Bourne picked up Hans and Kate from Long Island and came to Detroit together.
But there was a problem: how to get everyone to Ohio covertly and safely.
Certainly not by plane.
You know, whether it is Norman or Samantha, they are being hunted. Even if they can escape the pursuit and reach the airport, the identities of Samantha, Scarlett, Emily and Phoenix are still a problem. They are all illegal residents in various names.
Therefore, finding a bus that could accommodate everyone became Bourne's first choice.
Coincidentally, he knew a young car rental agent in Detroit who loved cars and was conscientious and responsible, and he believed that the young car rental agent could give him a good recommendation.
"Is this the place? It's too shabby here, and it's not worthy of your current status as a lord! But the dark environment here is very good, and the scenery is really beautiful!"
As he walked, Hans took a deep breath.
Bourne looked around with a bit of a smile on his face. Dim lights, long tunnels, messy ground, deserted streets, where was the beautiful scenery?
By the way, you are a vampire who usually lives in a coffin, not an ordinary human!
When they reached the basement level 2 and just turned into the corridor, Hans suddenly twitched his nose and stopped:
"Master, there is blood ahead, and the smell of gunpowder!"
Kate immediately threw away the bag of snacks in her hand. Her normal pupils blinked and turned into vertical pupils, emitting a faint light in the darkness.
She leaped forward and disappeared into the darkness.
Bourne quickened his pace and turned a corner. He saw a speeding police car in the lobby of the underground parking lot not far ahead, crashing straight into an old man holding a Mossberg 500 shotgun at the elevator door.
"Bam—"
The gunman was knocked onto the roof of the car, then hit the chandelier on the ceiling, and finally fell heavily to the ground.
The police car seemed to be targeting someone else. It did not slow down at all and rushed towards a young couple who were in a daze not far away.
"STOP! FBI!"
Bourne yelled.
Because he had recognized that the boy in the young couple was the car rental guy he was looking for.
But as soon as he shouted, the police car crashed into a red Subaru.
Fortunately, no one was hit. At the last moment, the boy in the young couple hugged the girl and fell down, avoiding the collision.
This was not the end yet. The man in the police car reacted quickly. Almost as soon as the car stopped, he started reversing and stepped on the accelerator to the bottom, as if he wanted to go back and crush the person who had just been hit.
As expected, just as Bourne expected, the police car quickly approached the man who had fallen to the ground. With a cruel smile, the person in the car stepped on the accelerator, feeling extremely happy:
"Monica is dead, it's all your fault, you guys should die too!"
However, the expected feeling of running over a human body did not appear, and he looked forward hastily. Through the windshield covered with spider web cracks, he saw a young girl disrupting the situation at the critical moment.
"Damn it! Why don't you just die quietly?!"
The man in the car became furious, his eyes were bloodshot and his originally smooth hair almost stood up.
Looking at the young couple still lying on the ground and about to get up, and then looking at the unconscious old man who was almost dragged into the elevator by the accidental girl, the people in the car finally made up their minds to kill the boy first, as he was the culprit who killed his girlfriend.
"Go to hell, baby!"
The occupant stepped on the accelerator for the third time and the car was about to rush out.
